I can say from my experience dealing with system76, they are hands down one of my favorite machine producers, for both laptops and desktops. I am trying to get some server units ordered from them for an upcoming test deployment for a new architecture we are working on and hope I can get buy in from the company to support someone other than dell or hp.

They're a great group of people, I agree. Unfortunately the machines are not great, at least from my perspective as a Gazelle owner, and from what I have read from others who have purchased laptops from them. I've never used one of their server products so I can't comment on them. I want System76 to thrive but they need to build a better hardware product at the price point.

If you don't want to deal with HP or Dell just go to smaller server re-seller like https://www.ixsystems.com https://www.ixsystems.com or buy Supermicro machine (which is basically what Dell is using) from someone like http://www.rackservers.com http://www.rackservers.com . Don't go with S76, they are just re branding machines, and not even high quality machines https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13777649#13779002 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13777649#13779002

For servers, I highly recommend Penguin Computing. My company is a customer of theirs, and very happy ones at that.
